When does my employer coverage actually end? - what worked for you?

HR said my health plan continues for a bit and I do not understand how. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I do not want to be surprised by a bill. How did you confirm your end date?

Ask HR to confirm the exact date in writing. I also called the insurance company to double-check.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.
